Chapter 597 - A Brutal Tactic And A Hard War
He attached the pillar to an arrow before launching it far to the front. The pillar got activated and caused a rumble before an explosion came forth sweeping away a good part of the hostile army.
The second pillar created devastation enough to expand the gap in front of everyone. Arthur was just hit with the shock wave of that explosion and he didn't fall like before.
Only lost balance for a moment before stabilizing himself in no time.
"There is such a difference between the two… that one George gave me is really brutal," he muttered before pushing forwards towards the gap, trying to keep the advantage present.
'Can you bring it to me?' he muttered and his system controlled the pillar to return back to him.
'Ding! Don't count me too much for that,' the system warned, 'I have a limit to control your things and this costs a lot of energy as well.'
"I need you to do this for me," Arthur muttered, "the shock wave of these pillars is really violent."
'Ding! I'll try my best.'
Arthur pushed forward before activating George's pillar using the same technique. Despite throwing it far away from him, the hit he got was still painful and he ended up in the middle of a deep crater.
"Damn! How further should I throw this bastard?!"
Arthur returned to the sky and pressed forward again. Despite his efforts, the gaps he created were rapidly filled with more enemies and soon his pillars didn't manage to help in advancing them at all.
"Sigh, this the farthest I can go then using these two," Arthur muttered to himself in regret, "I hoped to reach further," he glanced at the still far away target of his.
"Bring forth everyone," he said, "after the activation of this pillar."
'I'll do it, just be sure not to get severely wounded,' Gege said while referring to his numerous and deep wounds covering all over his dragonair's body.
"Don't worry, just don't miss the timing," he threw George's pillar once again and this time he threw it far to the distance before releasing another arrow to catch up with it and activate this beast.
"Rumble!"
The moment it was activated he was hit with much violent shockwave and ended up in the same way as before. But… this time the gap was filled not by enemies but with his own people.
And the moment he got himself up, he was marveled by their efficiency.
"Gege… you did a great job telling them what to do," he said with a big laugh as he was pretty content with their actions.
'I revised the plan with the other two here and relayed the instructions many times to everyone. Don't worry, they won't disappoint you.'
"Great."
In front of Arthur, and in the big gap created with his pillar's explosion, his people started placing huge rocks that were strangely fitting to each other.
In no time, a huge wall appeared with many towers and great defensive tools. Arthur was astonished, as he never thought of using such a tactic before.
They used some material to glue the rocks together, plus they already had intersecting pieces that fit each other. So despite hastily built, this wall and these towers looked strong and sturdy enough to sustain the damage.
"Take the walls," Doaf's shout came from high in the sky all of sudden, "use everything to kill."
"Good reaction," Arthur smiled as he watched his large number of mages moving towards the walls and towers while more mages and villagers kept popping up.
And now it was the issue of their ability to sustain the first impact.
As for him, he hurriedly went over the current area surrounded with walls and started using his arrows to cause some damage over the suddenly crowded enemies hitting their faces towards the suddenly amassed walls.
The walls were taken instantly with his mages, and the next thing happened for a massive and violent encounter to take place in an intense way from the first moment.
Everything depended entirely on the results of this clash, either his men would sustain the pressure and hold their grounds or they would be crushed and he would lose everything.
"I won't let that happen," he swore before flying like a mad dragon all over the battlefield and using everything in his disposal… arrows, pillars, breaths, and even his scales and tail.
He didn't stop at anything to help his mages stand their grounds, and for Doaf and other elite forces he had, they started a rampage as well.
And the enemy didn't stand silent as they sent huge numbers of flying monsters to crush the fort from the air.
Their ground forces were met with a strong resistance. If they continued their regular way of fighting they wouldn't manage to prevail.
So the incoming flying monsters aimed to crush those mages from the air, yet they underestimated Arthur and his newly appearing forces.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Suddenly all the towers were activated alongside many defensive shields. Huge number of explosions erupted all over the place as these towers rained many attacks over the heads of those flying monsters.
Many were killed in the first wave of attacks and their domineering momentum was crushed with the incoming attacks, creating wide gaps between their ranks and leaving behind many dead and wounded monsters.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Many of the explosions echoed wildly at the entire battlefield from the tower's attacks, yet there were some muffled ones caused by the brutal clash between these monsters and the invisible defensive shields.
Arthur and his elite teams found the enemies in tattered shape, and that helped a lot in killing the monsters near the walls much easier than before.
After half an hour, things started to stabilize as the first clashes all ended in Arthur's army's crushing victory.
"Be ready," Arthur shouted, "we'll move to phase two now."
If not for the stressing danger of that beast summoning he would have preferred to keep himself and his forces here.
